THAT'S the one you take issue with? Lol

In not sure anyone is eating muskrat or opossum outside West Virginia mountain hermits, people born before 1890, and anyone who self identifies as a trapper.

There's parts of the Florida Panhandle where opossum is a serious delicacy. They even have a festival in August.

Muskrat was classified as non meat for Catholics, so some people ate it, but anyone I know who did is dead now.

Well squirrel was the funniest one within that context imo.
